Cosmopolitan put together a tutorial for making miniature pizza cupcakes out of a frozen pizza pie. While ordering a pizza may seem like an easy dinner choice, it can be hard not to scarf down that extra slice. These cute and contained pizza cupcakes offer the same great taste of pizza in a healthy serving size.

The recipe is easy to make and can be assembled using a pre-made frozen pizza. Simply thaw the pie and then use a round cutter to make miniature pizzas that can be stuffed into cupcake liners. The recipe allows users to add their own toppings in order to customize the tiny pizza creations. The end result is a batch of miniature pizza cupcakes that are perfect for snacking.
